This kind of lumpia has different content. Lumpia basah used juicy tuber and the skin is not fried like we do in making semarang lumpia. So, after the skin is filled by juicy tuber, bean sprouts, egg and seasoning, we can eat it by using chopstick.

Don’t think it’s uncooked, because the lumpia skin should always been cooked already.
